# Pooled Orders: Share Order Totals with Drivers

> Show every driver on an order the order-wide total and how much all trucks have delivered.

Turn on **Share order totals** and every driver on an order sees how close the whole order is to done, live, across all trucks. Fewer calls asking "how many more loads?", and fewer trucks hauling past the order total.

## What it is

A pooled order is an [order](https://docs.tread.ai/concepts/orders-projects.md) created while **Share order totals** is on. On a pooled order, the driver app shows the order's total and what all trucks have delivered. It replaces the job's own quantity. It works for [Internal Drivers and Shared Drivers](https://docs.tread.ai/concepts/dispatching-drivers-vendors.md) alike.

> [!NOTE]
>
> The setting only applies to orders created after you turn it on. Each order keeps the value it had when it was created, so turning the setting on does not change existing orders.

## Set it up

**1. Turn on Share order totals**

Go to **Settings → Configuration** (1) and check **Share order totals** (2) under **Display → Dispatch**. Only users who can edit company settings see this section.

**2. Create the order with an ordered quantity**

Under **Materials**, enter the **Ordered Quantity** and **Units**, for example 1,000 Ton of one material. This is the total that drivers see.

![The Create Order form with 1000 Ton of #89 Limestone in the Materials section](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/treadtechnologiesinc/images/workflows/share-order-totals-order-single-material.png)

To pool several materials, click **Add Material** and give each one its own ordered quantity. Drivers see one progress bar per material.

**3. Dispatch the jobs**

Assign jobs to Internal Drivers, Shared Drivers, or both, and send them. Set each job's quantity to **Running** (see [Job quantities](#job-quantities-on-a-pooled-order) below).

## What drivers see

**1. Assigned list**

Every job on a pooled order reads **Requested: Pooled Order - Tap for more**, whatever the job quantity. A regular order still shows its loads and material.

**2. Active job**

After the driver accepts and starts the job, the **Order progress · all trucks** card replaces the Requested box. It shows the delivered amount, the percentage, and what is left.

![The active job with Order progress all trucks at 0 of 1,000 Tons, Nothing delivered yet](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/treadtechnologiesinc/images/workflows/share-order-totals-mobile-active-job-progress-empty.png)

**3. Progress updates live**

Each completed load from any truck on the order updates the card for every driver.

![Order progress at 25 of 1,000 Tons, 2 percent, 975 Tons left](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/treadtechnologiesinc/images/workflows/share-order-totals-mobile-active-job-progress-25.png)

**4. Multiple materials**

On an order with several materials, the card shows one bar per material. The material on this driver's job is listed first.

![Order progress with #89 Limestone 0 of 600 Tons and Builders Sand 0 of 400 Tons](https://mintlify.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/treadtechnologiesinc/images/workflows/share-order-totals-mobile-active-job-multi-material.png)

When the order reaches its total, finishing a load opens an **Order complete** sheet. The driver taps **Finish job** to end the job. If they tap **Continue** instead, the app asks **Haul past the order total?** and warns that the dispatcher will see the order go over.

## Job quantities on a pooled order

The driver's request details, shown before they accept, still show the job's own quantity. Pick the job quantity with that in mind.

| Job quantity | Request details show | Use it? |
| - | - | - |
| **Running** | ∞ Running | Yes. The driver keeps hauling and follows the order progress card. |
| Same as the order (e.g. 1,000 Ton) | 1000.0 Tons | Avoid. Each driver reads the whole order as their own job. |
| **1 Load** | 1 Load | Avoid. The driver sees one load while the order needs many. |

## Common pitfalls

> [!WARNING]
>
> **Turning the setting on for an order that already exists.** Existing orders keep their old value. Create a new order after you turn on **Share order totals**.

> [!WARNING]
>
> **Copying the order quantity onto each job.** A job set to 1,000 Ton tells each driver they alone owe the full order. Use **Running** and let the order progress card show the total.
